I'm pretty sure that with the FZ5, all you need is a quick tap on the brake to shift the weight distribution and induce oversteer, thus excessive use of the brake pedal up to the point of locking up the wheels is IMO quite useless.
I think you should get rid of the ABS nevertheless since when you end up too short on a corner approach, locking the rear tires could save you by prolonging the sliding period.
Well the main difference would be that motorsport doesn't really involve violence at all. It's more technical since a lot of physics, mathematics, general research basically gets put into it to make a respective car more competitive then the opposition's.
Motorsport isn't polluting really. Actually, I'm quite sure motorsport helped the technology put into road cars get better at a faster pace. An engine that burns gasoline, as an example, better and faster usually makes for better performance but also for better fuel economy.
I think you are, their is more to it then kicking a ball trough a set of posts or to run into an area and put the ball down, isn't it? You have to travel trough a field where you'll encounter the opposite team who's objective is the vice versa of yours. Going trough or blocking the opponents is quite often violent.
So up to a point, you could say that the method for scoring points in rugby is hitting someone.
I don't agree with you on this one. In time, a human's way of thinking, of interacting, opinions, etc. can or simply will be changed. It has been proven to exist on many levels.
Don't you think that you're contradicting yourself a bit there? To say my opinion in your own words:
Yes, boxing has a degree of violence in it but it's a side product of the game. The point of boxing is to score more than the opponent by landing more successful hits then him in some particular areas. The point of boxing is to score more points then the opposition .[/QUOTE]
I think you've mistaken boxing for street fighting but I will agree that fighting in any form, may it be in a controlled environment for glory, fame, satisfaction and money or for a basic need such as food, is primitive. I do not agree however with banning it, I think leaving mother nature to run it's course up to the point that we can all agree that it's useless and primitive in these modern times is the best option.
Maybe in the distant future, due to the lack of interest in it or by request od the majority of the population, boxing will cease to exist.
Seen that before, I think it's a repost but still...... that needs to be shown to thy people!
It's not the behemoth splitters that get me, it's the exhaust pipes. Just from looking at this pic, it's pretty obvious that they have no basic understanding of how an engine works. It's welded so grotesque, they didn't even bothered giving it some roundness and smoothness... http://tanetane92.web.infoseek.co.jp/052941.jpg
Say bye-bye to a high percentage of the engine's original power and your social dignity
